[Verse 1: Teacher] The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowing, Reverence and awe set our minds growing. It’s not terror; it’s trust and respect, A holy affection our hearts must protect. [Echo: Students] Wisdom starts here, in humility’s sound, Fear of the Lord keeps us safe and bound. [Chorus: Company] The fear of the Lord—foundation strong, Guides our steps and guards from wrong. The fear of the Lord—where wisdom’s found, Hearts made steady, lives made sound. [Verse 2: Teacher] When pride takes root, destruction’s near, But those who bow low walk free from fear. Honor His name, let His truth be prized, Life everlasting for the humble, the wise. [Echo: Students] Wisdom starts here, in humility’s sound, Fear of the Lord keeps us safe and bound. [Bridge: Call & Response – Teacher & Students] 🔥 Teacher: Lift your eyes, let reverence rise! 🔥 Students: Fear of the Lord opens our eyes! 🔥 Teacher: Trust in His Word, don’t turn away! 🔥 Students: Wisdom will guard us day by day! [Final Chorus: Full Cast] The fear of the Lord—foundation strong, Guides our steps and guards from wrong. The fear of the Lord—where wisdom’s found, Hearts made steady, lives made sound. [Outro: Teacher – Spoken Flow] It all begins with reverence true, Wisdom flows when we honor You.
